Chefelf.com Night Life: DocBrown - Viewing Profile

[Spoilers of probably all 4 games ahead.]

Hello! So yeah, I'm pretty much a newbie around here and all, but I couldn't help but to love this series, being a fan of adventures games and all.

But, straight to the point, did anyone else notice that the picture in the dining room of the DeFoe Manor isn't the only one that keeps changing throughout the game? The picture of the view of Matthew DeFoe's window, which is also featured in Trilby's Notes, changes too; but in an appearently random manner, not a bit in each day like Roderick's in the dining room (think this is his name).

Here, I took a screenshot and uploaded it into ImageShack:

See? There's something that keeps appearing and disappearing if you leave and enter the living room several times. It's probably a man, but you can't really tell, can you...

I know Yahtzee probably hadn't thought of most of the series by the time he made 5 Days, but after playing through all of them I started wondering who could this figure be. Maybe it is the Tall Man? Or maybe it is Somerset's older self, already as a "time guardian", watching over everything so that events would happen as they should? I mean, not that they were inside the picture, but maybe little Matthew saw them through the window and painted them there... And for some freaky reason they couldn't stay painted for too long.

Or maybe I just theorize too much. Who do you guys think that dark figure is?


Edit:

Oh, yeah! Forgot something: if you put the mouse on top of the picture, the legend reads "picture". But when you put the mouse on top of the black figure, it is treated as part of the scenario (it's nothing, and you can't interect with it). Thought this was quite interesting.
